Before we get into tips on blocking people without them knowing, we will try to discuss the normal way to block first. You need to understand, this method is still detected by the blocked contact.

Generally, this is seen from the profile picture, where the blocked/blocking WhatsApp looks like it doesn't use a display picture. This is common knowledge and is the easiest marker.

It has become a consensus among the community that blocking is an impolite social gesture, especially if you do it to someone you know/often interact with in a daily context.

This is because blocking activity will be more appropriate if used on contacts that are toxic in nature, such as fraud, spam, or foreign numbers that have the potential to disrupt life.

However, if you are forced to do it (either to someone close to you or a toxic contact), here is a detailed explanation of the easiest step-by-step that you can try directly on your respective devices:

  1. Open your WhatsApp application, and make sure you are logged in using your respective accounts;
  2. In the initial menu display, select and open the chat of the contact you want to block;
  3. Once done, select the three vertical dots icon located in the upper right corner. A dropdown menu will appear, then tap the “More” option;
  4. An advanced dropdown menu will open, and within it there is a “Block” option;
  5. The final step, a prompt will appear that will confirm your choice to block the account. You can also report the contact (additional option) by including the last five chats. If it is fixed, press the "Block" button.

And done, the contact will be blocked. Blocked accounts will not be able to contact or try to interact with Vicigers via WhatsApp, including viewing status, profile photos, or other information.

Well, if above VCGamers has explained the normal blocking method, then the next is the blocking tips that are unknown to Vicigers. But disclaimer first, this is just an alternative.

Until now, Meta as the developer of WhatsApp itself has not provided a way to make blocking activities less obvious (especially regarding the appearance of profile photos that appear blank).

So there is another alternative that you can do, namely by limiting interactions from your side. The method that VCGamers offers is by archiving chats from the account WhatsApp concerned.

In this way, incoming message notifications from the account will not appear or pop up at the top of the list. That way, it is hoped that it will not interfere with usage activities. WhatsApp you guys:

  1. Press the chat you want to archive for a few seconds until a row of icons (action bar) appears at the top;
  2. Select the contact-shaped icon with a downward arrow, just to the left of the “three-dot” icon.

And done! The chat will go into the archive page at the top of the chat list (“Archived”). In that menu you can also see all the chats that are in the archive list.

What you have to remember is that the chats you archive can basically still contact you, but you decide to ignore the various messages they send.

And the notification silence as explained above also only applies to incoming messages. Unlike blocking, if the account decides to call or video call, you can still see the call.
